Forklift Slippers | Extension Slippers for Enhanced Load Handling
Premium Forklift Slippers for Australian Businesses
Mandarin Imports & Exports offers high-quality forklift slippers designed to extend the capabilities of your material handling equipment. Our extension slippers provide a safe and efficient solution for handling oversized, longer, or awkward loads that exceed standard tyne length.
What Are Forklift Slippers?
Forklift slippers (also known as extension slippers or tyne extensions) are attachments designed to slide onto existing forklift tynes, effectively increasing their length to accommodate larger loads. These attachments are secured with safety pins to ensure stability during operation.
Benefits of Using Forklift Slippers
Enhanced Load Handling: Safely manage longer or bulkier items that exceed standard tyne length
Increased Operational Flexibility: Adapt your existing equipment to handle diverse load types
Cost-Effective Solution: Avoid purchasing equipment for occasional oversized loads
Simple Installation: Quick slide-on design requires no tools for attachment
Improved Safety: Properly support extended loads to prevent tipping or dropping
Reduced Product Damage: Properly distribute load weight across the extended surface
